Most bang for the buck, is probably black rims and black grill - if you like that kind of treatment....

Yep they are nice as on mine

For me, the best mod was to replace the single tail pipe with a twin. It was fitted by BMW and I think it transforms the look of the 20D.

Best mod (and only thus far) I've done is tinted my windows. Changes the appearance of the car completely!

Definitely Black Grill, it really brings the vehicle together nicely.

Euro mirrors is another possible mod.

Where can I purchase the euro mirrors for a decent price??

I have got some photos to put on but it says they are to big. I have to resize to add.... I'm not very good with tech stuff

g4gav: very simple, at end of message you hold the picture against the screen and press "CTRL" for 10 seconds!

Sorry! I could not resist Alternatively you go "Go Advanced" and follow instructions.

"After market" stuff coming from Vauxhall? Do you mean stripes and spoilers?

Regardless of what your car looks like, you have got suggestions:
-black grill and rims
-M Sport steering wheel
-dual endpipes: R/L ?
-tinted (rear) windows.
-I don't think you should buy "Euro mirrors", since I believe England is still in Europe.
-19" staggered (rear) wheels
-lower the vehicle

iv had subarus, nissan r33, vauxhall cavs - vecs - novas etc and always used standard parts or there own brands sports companies i.e: irmscher etc..... its cost a lot more yes but at least it looks better.....

iv just never had a thing for after market things.....

but yes steering wheel will be nice but I'm also looking at getting a wheel made up with a flat bottom on it, i done the same to my vectra so that was a custom item not after market. :thump:

not really into the lowering thing, but 19,s staggered sound good !!!!!

the black lung grills are something i have been looking at also.
